Configuring System Parameters

Prime Collaboration allows you to configure system parameters for both Prime Collaboration Assurance and Prime Collaboration Provisioning. To configure the following Prime Collaboration Assurance system parameters, navigate to Administration > System Setup > Assurance Setup.

Configuring SMTP Server

You can configure the SMTP server to send and receive e-mail notifications for alarms by specifying the SMTP server name and the sender AAA E-mail address. The value in the sender AAA E-mail address field helps you to identify the server you receive the e-mail from, in case of many servers.

SSL Certificate Authentication for Device Discovery

A Secure Socket Layer (SSL) certificate is primarily used to provide a secure connection between a server and a browser. The SSL certificate encrypts the sensitive information like login credentials, device credentials, and other details that you enter on the server. The encrypted information is communicated between the server and the respective browsers for authentication.

In Prime Collaboration, when a device is added, the SSL certificates are exchanged for credential validation by accessing a protected resource using HTTPs. During exchange, the SSL certificate does not get stored in Prime Collaboration trust-store and communication to the device fails, at a later point of time. It is recommended that you manually import the SSL certificate to Prime Collaboration trust-store to access the device.

Prime Collaboration enables you to check the authenticity of the SSL certificate during its communication with the devices or applications over HTTPs. However, this is not mandatory as you can still continue to discover the devices without authenticating the certificate.

By default, Prime Collaboration does not validate the certificates from the devices or applications it communicates. To enable the SSL certificate authentication:
